    I have to say a few things here. Cory, I really appreciate you and your team so much. The amount and quality of your content is amazing. over the last few years I developed depression and anxiety. I somehow stumbled back into the hobby I had left long ago after a move. Now I am about 2 years back into the hobby and when I am down and my fish aren't enough to help, yours always are. Thank you so much for sharing your setups, products, experience, time and energy in this community. It is wonderful to have people who are as passionate as you are as involved as you are with all the things you do to contribute. I also admire that you still have fish at home. I think it speaks volumes of your passion that after building a company to sell fish, you've maintained your love enough to still keep some at home. Thanks again!

    I'm assistant manager of The Fish Room in Raleigh, NC. Our front reef display tank gets blasted by early morning sunlight for several hours before we open shop so we've been hanging a thin white foam board on the front glass viewing panel each night before we leave. So far it has helped greatly to mitigate various algae and cyanobacteria growth and it was very easy to make.

    Thumbs Up guys...@ Aquarium Co-Op Shop window needs a large block out and Murphy is what you want across the front.Frosted decal will allow some light in to avoid making the shop to dark from block out. Before worrying about the upgrade to Murphy's tank get a good look at base of store as that amount of weight maybe outside load limit of base material.(Alot of Aquaruim stores get a bill from landlord to repair place later from Cracking floor)

    You could always assemble the tank on site. That would deal with half the logistical problems of adding a 10ft tank to the store. Acrylic is easy to bond together, it doesn't have to be pre-built!

    Hey Corey,
    I’m an interior designer in Vancouver BC and happened to stumble upon your video which mentioned your betta tank algae problem...
    Anyhoo ... I’m wondering if you have ever thought about blackout roller blinds powered by a remote with your graphics on one side? That may solve your problem and keep those fish tanks from growing algae that you are speaking of… Just a thought.

    Surely it would be easier to do a custom build in location. You could go for a pond style setup with two viewing panels on the two sides you can actually see. It would be a bunch cheaper so you could do the larger height. You can also build a filter inside the tank, maybe with a cool feature, something really unique for a store like a waterfall and emersed plants.. just a thought

Freshwater mid-level fish, i love schools of cardinal tetras. they look amazing in my planted tank. Bottom hillstream reticulate loach. He's the clown of my tank. Often seen him floating on big amazon sword leaves that are bouncing in the filter current. Considering getting a few others to see how they interact with eachother

    I rescued the office Betta from a 1/2 gal bowl into a 10 gallon tank. I have spent at least $200 to upgrade this guy to a better life and I am still going to spend another $40-50 on more plants, the petco plants were crap. So now that $5 fish can cost over $200 to house and feed and care for in a planted tank, and that did not include a stand. But happy I did it, he used to just lay on the bottom of the bowl now that he is warm and not in toxic water he swims all day long. If I had done a 5 gal tank the cost would not have been much less.
    ****Who makes that 3 gal tank? *** I would like to get one for my home since I now want a Betta of my own. Thanks for the video.
